[mrtg] Re: Graphing Pings to router

[PAUL WILLIAMSON]

Is the OID a counter?  Have you tried doing manual 
snmpgets to the device?  If so, what are the results?
Could it be that MaxBytes is too low?

I've actually tried removing gauge and my graphs go to zero. Believe it or not, this router is getting hit by more than 100 pings per second. Yep, that's per second. Long story short, thousands of customers were configured to ping this router as a test of connectivity, a very bad thing considering how the routers handle localized ping traffic. Graphing it is a way of showing management how bad it is.

Thanks again.

Get rid of gauge in your options.

Hello,

 

I'm trying to track ICMP traffic to a Cisco 7204VXR. I have the correct
OIDs and what I thought should be a working config (shown below). These
routers are currently experiencing a ton of ICMP echos (long story and
they are valid) but the graph only shows a MAX of 1. I know I'm missing
something. Any ideas? Again, here's the config minus all the html stuff.

 

Thanks!
